#DarkMatter Virtual Season 4 - Episode 4.02, Act III
Act 1:
Act 2:
An unconscious TWO is cuffed as Anders, THREE, and Wexler are pulled out of their transfer pods and arrested. Their clones are still active - but not for long….

Inside the facility, Anders gets on a computer and deduces the bomb has been moved to the R&D lab, two floors down. He, THREE, and Wexler are on the move. #DarkMatter

Back at the Ferrous shipyard, Tash informs SIX of his options. Option #1: He jumps and hope this trajectory carries him to the other side. If he miscalculates, he'll drift wide and float off helplessly...until his oxygen runs out. Option #2: See Option #1.

Inside the G.A. facility, the scientist finishes assembling the bomb. Guards pound at the sealed door. What now?! Wexler presses a button and the device comes to life. "What'd you do to the bomb?"asks THREE. "I armed it,"Wexler informs him. Off a stunned THREE we-
